Hello all! I'm new here; I've read posts from here for a while now but finally decided to take the plunge and make an account. I have been an avid fan of the series since I first read TBB at a very young age, and have continued to return to the books over the years, with a growing appreciation of their complexity and the various literary allusions that Handler makes. However, my motives for joining are not entirely innocent: I am currently writing an exploratory extended essay on the intertextuality of ASOUE, focusing on the figure of Beatrice and her relation to Date's Beatrice in especial; so if anyone feels like adding their thoughts on the matter or the intertextual nature of the novels in general, or pointing me in the direction of good threads, please do so here!! Any thoughts or ideas that I use in my essay will, of course, be credited.
